In today’s volatile business landscape, access to the right information at the right time is critical. Yet, many firms unknowingly struggle with a hidden problem: their own research is working against them. Instead of empowering better decisions, fragmented, siloed knowledge often slows teams down, leads to redundant work, and increases risk.
The Research Bottleneck: Too Much, Too Scattered
Financial institutions invest heavily in research—internal reports, third-party data, market analysis, and expert insights. But where does it all live? For most organisations, the answer is: everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
- Research is scattered across databases, emails, shared drives, and vendor platforms
- Analysts waste hours searching for past insights instead of acting on them
- Key reports are duplicated, outdated, or lost in a sea of disconnected content
The result? Decisions take longer, insights go unnoticed, and valuable knowledge is underutilised and opportunities are missed.
The Cost of Siloed Knowledge
If your research is fragmented, it’s not just an inconvenience—it’s a competitive disadvantage. Here’s why:
1. Time Wasted Searching Instead of Analysing
Studies show that knowledge workers spend up to 30% of their time searching for information. That’s nearly a third of the workweek lost, simply trying to find the right insights (KM World).
2. Redundant Work and Missed Insights
When teams can’t easily find past research, they often recreate reports that already exist or miss crucial insights that could impact decisions. This duplication is costly—both in terms of time and missed opportunities.
3. Inconsistent Decision-Making
Different teams rely on incomplete or outdated information because there’s no single source of truth. This leads to conflicting strategies, unnecessary risk, and regulatory concerns in industries where compliance is critical.
